After one month in 2026, I’m checking in on my goals and my three words. It’s the perfect time to remind myself of what I’ve set out to achieve and the decisions I made early this year.
First, my goals.
- Finish my book – Underway. I want to finish it in the first quarter or so this year. This one is on surviving loss and toxic family systems. I’m also starting a book on what it means to drive effective communications in organizations today.
- Take the right supplements for my health and fitness – I’ve decided what’s right for me and have started to take them.
- Consider a career pivot to grant writing – I’m still thinking about this. I’m not quite sure it’s for me yet.
Then, here are my three words for the year as a reminder to me:
- Ease: Defined as to be calm and relaxed.
- Peace. This is about also about calmness, quiet and inner focus.
- Purpose. For me, this means a life well-lived and aligned with my values and how I can make a difference.
That’s my purpose for the year – to keep it top of mind and to keep plugging away at all this.
